Despite a valiant effort, the Detroit Red Wings fell to the Ottawa Senators with a score of 2-1, continuing their struggle to secure wins. Coach Todd McLellan expressed his frustration, noting the team's strong performance and effort, which unfortunately didn't translate to the scoreboard. The standout player for Ottawa, goaltender Linus Ullmark, stood tall against a barrage of 48 shots, showcasing an extraordinary performance that kept the Red Wings at bay.

Alex DeBrincat, a forward for Detroit, conveyed a similar sentiment, emphasizing that the team played well and had their chances. The defining factor of the game, however, was the Senators' effectiveness on the power play, converting two opportunities, while the Red Wings were unable to capitalize on theirs. As the season winds down, the focus now shifts to breaking the losing streak and finding ways to convert performances into victories.
